Alec Baldwin has been indicted on involuntary manslaughter after the death of a producer on the set of Rust.

The Grand Jury indictment was filed in Santa Fe, New Mexico, today over the death of Halyna Hutchins, who died after a prop gun, held by Baldwin, went off on set in October 2021.

Responding to the indictment, the actor’s lawyers said “we look forward to our day in court”.

Special prosecutors brought the case this week, months after receiving a new analysis of the gun that was used.
